"No, he has a chance." Gu Yanxi looked down at the wolf that was incomplete because of the missing head. "General Lu should know that the Chaoli tribe will not put such a person in our hands."
"I understand. I will go back and prepare now."
"I have already sent someone back to Beijing to fetch someone. It will take at least two days for the person to arrive, but Yuan Shifang cannot stay in the city. I will send someone to send him to the military camp, and I have to ask General Lu to keep an eye on him."
Lu Peiyu had heard of the reputation of the Seven Stars Division for a long time, but this was her first time dealing with them. She had nothing to hide and had no scruples. She asked whatever came to her mind, "Should we keep the whereabouts of Yuan Shifang a secret?"
Gu Yanxi looked at Lu Peiyu through the mask. The Lu family had taught him the art of war books, so he was not worried that Lu Peiyu was a fool. What he was worried about was the army in Yuzhou, which had not seen any war for many years and didn't know how much fighting power it still had.
"Outsiders will only know that Yuan Shifang is still the governor of Yuzhou, but he has been sick for two days due to illness."
"Yes, I know what to do."
"Don't let anyone touch him."
"yes."
After watching Lu Peiyu leave, Gu Yanxi called out, "Someone come."
"I am here."
"Tell the three guards that I need useful information before dawn."
"yes."
The room finally became quiet. Gu Yanxi went over everything in her mind and then thought about Haoyue's matter.
He couldn't trust a person who didn't even have a surname, even if she was really a fairy from heaven. He didn't need to see her, he could tell her enormous ambition just by listening to her tone.
The least ambitious person he had ever seen was Azhi. Even now he had not found out her bottom line. It was as if she knew everything and nothing in the world could be difficult for her. But such a person could live in the inner courtyard for many years without any news. This was the real lack of ambition. The person who talked about entering the world and entering the world must have a big plan.
Marriage? The next monarch, or... him
Since she dared to surrender by using this matter, she must be sure of it. No matter what, Jingzhou and Xiangyang must be prepared for any eventuality.
Thinking of Jingzhou, Gu Yanxi softened his eyes. He didn't know where Ah Zhi was. She should be preparing to return. Fortunately, she had her own ideas and didn't really wait for him to go south together. If he was involved in the affairs of the Chaoli tribe, he might not be able to go anywhere in the short term.
Thinking that Azhi would go north after going south, Gu Yanxi lowered his eyes. He would definitely follow her north no matter what.
For Azhi, there are only two places in the world that she cares about, one is the capital, and the other is Yinshan Pass. He dare not imagine how much weight he holds in Azhi's heart, but he is sure that no matter how important his weight is, it cannot compare to the importance of her relatives to her. Going south and going north are simply incomparable.
He could choose not to accompany Azhi to Jingzhou due to official business, but if they went north, he would follow unless the Chaoli tribe had broken through the border and invaded.
Yuan Shifang was as tough as he expected. It was not until after midnight that Chen Qing finally knocked on the door with the hot file he had just finished.
Gu Yanxi read every word carefully, pursing her lips tightly. Forty-five years, the clues were actually planted forty-five years ago. The Chaoli tribe was still determined to do evil, and they actually captured a woman from the Daqing Dynasty and had a child. They then transferred the child to the Yuan family and raised him with him, so that he knew his identity from a young age and had no sense of belonging to the Daqing Dynasty. What a good strategy.
"Master, the Yuan family..."
"Don't make it public for now." Gu Yanxi said coldly. Yuan Shifang was indeed a member of the Chaoli clan. Even if they were not from the same clan, the Yuan family raised him and his adoptive father doted on him for many years. But in the end, he killed both of them just in case. It can be seen how cruel their hearts are.
"Continue the investigation. Since the Chaoli people came up with this idea, it must not be just Yuan Shifang. After returning to Beijing, you can bring people to Yuzhou and follow the clues from Yuan Shifang to see if you can find a few more people."
I gasped when I thought about how many Chaoli people were lurking in the Daqing Dynasty to petition. How could they tell Yuan Shifang apart when he looked no different from a Daqing person
"No one except Qisushi can get involved in this matter."
"But Master, once this matter is made public, I'm afraid the three departments and six ministries will..."
"No." Gu Yanxi said solemnly, "If they intervene, this matter will only become a means for them to frame each other. I don't want to find out that all the people are innocent in the end."
"Yes, I understand."
"The three divisions only have one hour." Gu Yanxi took out a map and scratched it with his finger. "The secret passage is no longer a secret passage. We can no longer go there. In one hour, you lead a team of people to take Yuan Shifang out of the city and hand him over to General Lu. For safety reasons, feed him a pill that will make him wake up."
The perfunctory name of Buxing Pills sounds like it was given by Paeonia lactiflora. The effect of the medicine is the same as its name. After taking it, he will not wake up even if he is bled.
At this time, the dripping sound outside gradually subsided, and the rain had stopped. However, a strong wind was about to blow in Yuzhou, and when it fell again, it would be a downpour.

The sun slowly rose from the sea level, broke through the clouds, and shone brightly. In an instant, the whole sky became bright.
Hua Zhi had been to many places and eaten many delicious foods in her previous life, but this was the first time she sat on the beach and watched the sunrise without thinking or doing anything. Like everyone else, she was shocked. The only difference was that she pretended better and even forgot to close her mouth.
At this time, a group of people were sitting on a boat, and the boat was parked at the farthest place the locals dared to go. Looking around, there was endless sea. It was so vast and awe-inspiring. This feeling was completely incomparable to Weihe. Baoxia's face was pale, and the red glow in the sky shone on her face as if she had applied the finest rouge on her.
"It's so beautiful." Shaoyao held her cheek with her hand, her face full of fascination.
Hua Zhi smiled and touched her head. Only the purest heart can discover the most beautiful things, so Xiao Liu would be shocked and she would appreciate it. Only Peony could express such pure emotion.
After glancing at the child who was pursing his lips, Hua Zhi looked at the gradually rising sun again. She thought that she had lived up to expectations this time. She hoped that such a vast sea and such an eye-catching sunrise would broaden his horizons and make his mind more open.
"Go back."
Xu Ying was just about to inform the captain when he heard the Sixth Prince say "wait a minute". This time he found out that the person living in the Hua family was actually a prince. His admiration for the eldest girl reached an impossible level. It was true that their eldest girl could do anything!
"Sister Hua, I want to see more." The Sixth Prince looked at Sister Hua, who was more gentle than ever at this moment. He knew it all. He knew that this was what Sister Hua wanted him to see. Whether it was a fight in a small place or the vast sea that seemed to have no end, Sister Hua wanted him to see it in order to tell him how big the world is and how majestic the heavens and the earth are.
He knows everything.
It is precisely because I know this that I want to look at it more carefully, experience it more deeply, and live up to Sister Hua’s painstaking efforts.
Hua Zhi looked at this smart but not too smart child and a smile gradually appeared in her eyes.
